A two-day workshop for Georgia K-8 teachers, administrators, counselors and teacher educators focusing on more effective teaching practices to reach children from poor and working-class families will be held at the University of Georgia Nov. 12-13.

The program titled, “The Other Side of Poverty,” will focus on research-based teaching practices sensitive to working-class and poor children and families; explore children’s literature and adult literature about social class and poverty; and provide classroom ideas for incorporating social-class related content. This is the second presentation of the workshop which drew great interest this past summer.
